Appendix C – Connecting Through Telnet
To use Telnet, Internet Access must have been previously setup so that the gateway
is visible on the internet (See User Guide for More Information). Alternatively, you can
use Telnet to locally access the TVP-221H, if you are under a router or switch and the
TVP-221H and your computer are in the same network segment.
To access the TVP-221H Gateway from a remote location / or from the same LAN
Segment using Telnet, perform the following tasks:
Task Prompt Type
Open the windows command prompt and enter the telnet
command followed by the IP address of the TVP-221H
Gateway you want to access.
None
telnet
xxx.xxx.xxx
When the TVP-221H Gateway prompts you to Login,
enter the user name "admin”
Login: admin
When the TVP-221H Gateway prompts you for the
Password, enter the password. The default password is
"123" but it is recommended that the password be
changed for security considerations. The password can
be changed from the Web UI Administration / Password
submenu page.

Type in “ping xxx.xxx.xxx”, where xxx.xxx.xxx is your ISP
provided DNS Server IP or any known Public Internet
Address. The following dialogue confirms Internet Access
Console>ping 168.95.1.1
ping <168.95.1.1>: 56 data bytes
168.95.1.1 is alive
If the ping times out, you do not have Internet Access or
the Public IP Address you pinged is incorrect. Try another
IP Address. If you confirm that you do not have Internet
Access, please refer to the trouble shooting section of the
User Manual or consult your ISP to make sure your
Internet Access Data is correct and accurately entered
into the TVP-221H.
